Abstract:This study focuses on the formulation of clove oil and
thyme oil
emulsions showing antioxidant capacity. Emulsions were formulated
with 2 and 4% of each essential oil by using microfluidization. Tween
80 was used as the surfactant. Droplet sizes and polydispersity index
values of emulsions were measured, and their effects on the emulsion
stability were investigated. While thyme oil emulsions showed a good
stability for 3 months, destability started in clove oil emulsions
soon after homogenization due to Ostwal… Show more
